A HUGE thank you to our May Howard staff for donating candy and volunteering their time to help make the night a success! And thank you to all the wonderful families who came out to join in the Halloween fun!

🧦 Our First Socktober Was a HUGE Success! 🧦

Our Hawks had so much fun showing off their silly, colorful, and creative socks throughout the month, all while helping others in our community!

Thanks to the generosity of our amazing May Howard families, we collected OVER 1,500 SOCKS! 🎉❤️

These socks will be donated to the Old Savannah City Mission and Neighbors Helping Neighbors to help those experiencing homelessness.

We are so proud of our Hawks for showing that even something as simple as a pair of socks can make a BIG difference!

Thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and helped make our very first Socktober such a success!

4th grade students have had the best time the past two days visiting the Jepson Center for the Arts in downtown Savannah. This field trip is always a memorable one! They have had fun learning about contemporary art and creating a layered mixed-media art project in the studio. ✌️💗 🎨 Jepson Center
